Herstellung von Dihydro-, Tetrahydro- und Hexahydrochelidamsäure-Derivaten

Preparation of dihydro-, tetrahydro- and hexahydro-chelidamic-acid derivatives. Three methods for the preparation of 4-oxo-2,6-piperidine-dicarboxylic acid ( 3 ) and derivatives, required as a synthon for betalaine pigments, were explored. The best method was found to be the catalytic hydrogenation of chclidamic acid ( 1 ) with 5% Rh/Alox in water under 2.7 atm. H₂ for 33 h at 70° and subsequent esterification with methanol which gave 42% of cis, cis-4-hydroxy-2,6-piperidine- ( 7 ) and 10% of 2,6-cis-piperidine-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester ( 8 ), readily separable by chromatography. Oxidation of 7 with dimethylsulfoxide and a carbodiimide attached to a polymer afforded 90% of 4-oxo-2,6-cis-piperidine-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester ( 19 ). Other methods of oxydizing 7 to 19 were less successful. The electrochemical reduction of 1 followed by esterification with methanol led in a low yield to a mixture of 4-oxo-0-2,6-trans-piperidine-dicarboxylic acid dimethylester ( 24 ), its dimethyl acetal 25 and presumably trans-4-hydroxy-r-2, cis-6-piperidine-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester ( 26 ). Reaction of 4-oxo-hepta-2E, 5E-dienoic acid ( 35 ) with aqueous ammonia gave a 98% yield of a 3 : 2 mixture of cis- and trans-ammonium-4-oxo-2, 6-piperidine-dicarboxylate ( 39 and 40 ). The above mentioned catalytic hydrogenation method was also applied to N-ethyl-chelidamic acid ( 16 ) to give a 4:6 mixture of the N-ethyl derivatives 17 and 18 . Furthermore, a number of functional derivatives of 5 , of 19 , of 39 and of 40 were prepared. Oxidation of the hydroxy-diester 7 with dimethylsulfoxide and a carbodiimidc derivative in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid afforded 4-oxo-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2, 6-pyridine-dicarboxylic acid dimethyl ester ( 50 ). This ester was also obtained under the same conditions from thc keto-diester 19 .     

Synthesis and hydrolytic cleavage of 1-aryl-5-cyano-6-(2-dimethylaminovinyl)-4-oxo(thioxo)-1,4-dihydropyrimidines

1-Aryl-5-cyano-6-(2-dimethylaminovinyl)-4-oxo-1,4-dihydropyrimidines and their 4-thioxo analogs, which were prepared in three steps from cyanoacetamide and cyanothioacetamide, respectively, were subjected to hydrolysis. In aqueous AcOH, hydrolysis of N-(dimethylaminomethylene)-2-cyano-5-dimethylamino-2,4-pentadieneamide derivatives containing amino groups at position 3 afforded formylpyridones. The reaction of 2-cyano-3-dimethylaminothiocrotonamide with DMF dimethyl acetal gave rise to 3-cyano-4-dimethylamino-2-methylthiopyridine.     

Synthesis of Sucrose Analogues Modified at Position 4

Abstract

Upon reaction with sodium nitrite, the corresponding triflate 2 of known 1,3,4,6-tetra-O-pivaloyl-β-d-fructofuranosyl 2,3,6-tri-O-pivaloyl-α-d-glucopyranoside (1), afforded the galacto-sucrose 3 in high yield. This compound was converted into 4-deoxy-4-fluorosucrose derivative 4 by treatment with DAST. The reaction of triflate 6, derived from 3, with lithium azide afforded 4-azido-4-deoxysucrose derivative 7 which was transformed into 4-amino-4-deoxysucrose 9. S_N2 Displacement of the triflate of compound 6 with thioacetate ion provided the expected 4-S-acetyl-4-thiosucrose derivative 10 in excellent yield. Deacetylation of 10 afforded a mixture of 4-thiosucrose 11 and 4-thiosucrose disulfide 12.     

A New Route for the Synthesis of Substituted Pyridazines

Condensation of 4‐acetyl‐5,6‐diphenyl‐2,3‐dihydropyridzin‐3‐one (1) with dimethylformamide dimethylacctal (DMFDMA) afforded the enaminone 2. This could be converted into the pyrazolylpyridazine derivative 4 on reaction with hydrazine hydrate and into pyridazinylpyridazinone 7a,b via coupling with aromatic diazonium salts and subsequent treatment with active methylene compounds. The reaction of 6 with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in the presence of triphenylphosphine afforded the pyridazinylpyridazine derivative 8. Compound 1 converted into 9 upon reflux in acetic acid in the presence of ammonium acetate and afforded 10 on reflux in acetic acid.     

Convenient synthesis of novel sulfonamide derivatives as promising anticancer agents

Novel sulfonamide derivatives have been synthesized from the readily accessible N-(4-acetylphenyl)benzenesulfonamide (1) . Condensation of 1 with phenylhydrazine in refluxing ethyl alcohol gave the corresponding phenylhydrazone 2 , which was then added to the Vilsmeier-Haack reagent (POCl₃/DMF) to give the 4-formylpyrazole derivative 3 . Fusion of 1 with thiourea in the presence of iodine at 130°C afforded the 2-aminothiazole derivative 4 . Refluxing 1 with an excess of N, N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal furnished the enaminone 5 . The chemical reactivity of enaminone 5 toward some nitrogen and carbon nucleophiles has been studied to obtain polyfunctionalized heteroaromatic systems bearing a sulfonamide moiety. Besides, the enaminone 5 undergoes the Gewald reaction and reacts with ethyl cyanoacetate and elemental sulfur in the presence of morpholine to yield the 2-aminothiophene derivative 18 . Moreover, the utility of 5 for the synthesis of 4-(phenylsulfonamido)benzoic acid (19) was investigated. The synthesized sulfonamides were evaluated for their in vitro cytotoxic activities against two human cell lines, MCF-7 (breast adenocarcinoma cells) and RPE-1 (normal retina pigmented epithelium cells). The results revealed that compounds 1-3 , 6-8 , 10 , 12b , 18 , 19 , and 21 have a potent cytotoxic effect on MCF-7 and less on RPE-1 cells compared to the positive control doxorubicin®.     

Reduction of 2-amino-1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1 H-pyrido[3,2-b]indole-3-carbonitrile by sodium borohydride and sodium cyanoborohydride

The reduction of pyridoindole derivative 1 by sodium borohydride in methanol gives 4,5-dihydropyridoindole 2. On treatment of 5H-pyrido[3,2-b]indolium chloride 3 with sodium cyanoborohydride in methanol in the presence of hydrogen chloride, reduction of the pyridine ring is accompanied by reduction of the CN group, resulting in the formation of tetrahydropyridoindole 4. Compound 4 reacts with DMF dimethyl acetal to yield amidine 6, and refluxing of 4 with acetic anhydride results in tetrahydropyridine ring cleavage yielding indolylacrylonitrile 9. The hydrochloride and chloride of compounds 4 and 6 were obtained     

Chlorosulfonation of Some Aldimine-Isocyanate Cycloadducts

Attempts to chlorosulfonate 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-diazetidin-2-one (1) failed, but the 3-methyl derivative (2) reacted with chlorosulfonic acid to give the bis-sulfonyl chloride (3), characterized as the sulfonamides 4 and 5. 2,3,6-Triphenyl-2,3-dihydro-1,3,5-thiadiazin-4-one (6) with chlorosulfonic acid suffered an acid-catalyzed ring-opening reaction forming the sulfonyl derivatives (8, 9) of N-phenyl-N′-thiobenzoylurea (7). Condensation of 8 and 9 with diethylamine afforded the diethyl-sulfonamide (10). Dibenzylideneethylenediamine (11) reacted with thiobenzoyl isocyanate at room temperature to yield the cycloadduct 12; however at 90°C, N,N′-di (thiobenzoylcarbamoyl)ethylenediamine (13) was obtained. The cycloadduct 12 with chlorosulfonic acid gave the ring-opened disulfonyl chloride 14 and the diethylsulfonamide 15. 1,6-Diphenylhexahydro-s-triazine-2,4-dione (17) was converted into the dimethyl derivative (18), which with chlorosulfonic acid afforded the bis-sulfonyl chloride (19), characterized as the sulfonamides 20–22.

     

Regioselective Synthesis of Polyheterocycles From 4-Cyclohex-2-ENYL-3-Hydroxy-1-Methylquinolin-2(1H)-One

4-Cyclohex-2-enyl-3-hydroxy-1-methylquinolin-2(1H)-one (4) was prepared in 90% yield by the thermal [3,3]sigmatropic rearrangement of 3-cyclohex-2-enyloxy-1-methylquinolin-2(1H)-one (3) in refluxing chloroben-zene for 10 h. Compound (4) was cyclised through a sequence of reactions viz. i) acetylation ii) addition of bromine and iii) treatment of the acetyl dibromo compound (6) with base to give a bicyclic product (7) in 90% yield. Treatment of compound 4 with pyridine hydro-bromide perbromide in dichloromethane at 0–5° C afforded a cyclic product 8 in excellent yield. Compound 4 when treated with cold conc. sulphuric acid at 0–5° C furnished the bicyclic product 12 in 89% yield.     

A New Synthesis of 5,8‐Dimethyl‐2‐tetralone—A Potential Intermediate for the Synthesis of Ring‐A Aromatic Sesquiterpenes. Novel Transformation During Acetoxylation of 5,8‐Dimethyldihydronapthalene

Abstract

An efficient synthesis of 5,8‐dimethyl‐2‐tetralone 4 starting from 5,8‐dimethyl‐1‐tetralone 2 is described. It was converted into the unsaturated derivative 3, which on epoxidation followed by acid hydrolysis yielded tetralone 4. Acetoxylation of 3 with manganese(III) acetate and potassium bromide afforded dimethylnaphthalene 8 and derivative 9.     

Reaction of 2-dimethylaminomethylene-1,3-diones with Dinucleophiles. IV. Synthesis of 5,7-dihydrothiopyrano[3,4-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones, 5H-Thiopyrano[4,3-d]isoxazol-4(7H)-one and 6H-Thiopyrano[3,4-d]pyrimidin-5(8H)-ones

The reaction of 2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal gave in good yield 4-dimethylaminomethylene-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)dione (II), which afforded 1-substituted 5,7-dihydrothiopyrano[3,4-c]pyrazol-4(1H)-ones with aliphatic and aromatic hydrazines, 5H-thiopyrano[4,3-d]isoxazol-4(7H)-one (IV) with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and 2-substituted 6H-thiopyrano[3,4-d]pyrimidin-5(8H)-ones with amidines and guanidines, generally in satisfactory yields. 4-(t-Butylhydrazonoformyl)-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione was isolated as an intermediate in the reaction of II with t-butylhydrazine, whereas formamidine gave with II 4-iminoformyl-2H-thiopyran-3,5(4H,6H)-dione as the sole product. The isoxazole IV isomerized easily with sodium methoxide to 3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-5,5-dihydroxy-3-oxo-2H-thiopyrano-4-carbonitrile.     

Reaction of 2-dimethylaminomethylene-1,3-diones with dinucleophiles. VI. Synthesis of ethyl or methyl 1,5-disubstituted 1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates

Reaction of ethyl or methyl 3-oxoalkanoates with N,N-dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal gave, generally in excellent yields, a series of ethyl or methyl 2-dimethylaminomethylene-3-oxoalkanoates II which reacted with phenylhydrazine to afford the esters of 5-substituted 1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acids III in high yields. Esters III were hydrolyzed to the relative 5-substituted 1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acids which were converted by heating to 5-substituted 1-phenyl-1H-pyrazoles in excellent yields. Reaction of II with methylhydrazine afforded in general a mixture of 3- and 5-substituted ethyl 1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylates with the exception of IIg , which gave in high yield methyl 5-benzyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate, which was hydrolyzed to the relative pyrazolecarboxylic acid. This afforded by heating 5-benzyl-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole in quantitative yield.     

Synthesis of (2S,4S)-4-Hydroxyproline from D-Glucose

Diacetone-D-glucose 1 gives 3- O -methylxanthate 2 on reaction with NaH/Me I. Reductive deoxygenation of compound 2 by Bu₃SnH gives the corresponding 3-deoxy glucose derivative 3 and on acid-catalyzed regioselective deprotection of C-5,6-acetonide gives the diol 4. The diol on oxidative cleavage with NaIO₄ gives the aldehyde 5, which on further condensation with benzylamine followed by reduction with NaBH₄ gives the amine 7. Z-Protection of the amine followed by methanolysis gives methyl furanoside 9. Reaction of 9 with methanesulfonyl chloride/Et₃N gives the corresponding C-3-O-mesylate derivative 10. Catalytic hydrogenation of compound 10 (Pd/C/H₂/MeOH 3 kg) gives bicyclic oxaazo compound 11, due to deprotection of the N-benzyl- and Z-protecting groups and intramolecular nucleophilic displacement of the C-2- O-mesylate by the C-5 amine in a one-pot reaction. Z-Protection of the amine 11 followed by acid-catalyzed hydrolysis gives acetal 13. Reduction of acetal by use of NaBH₄ gives Z-prolinol 14. Selective oxidation of diol 14 by (2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidin-1-yl)-oxyl (TEMPO)/[(bis)(acetoxy)iodo]benzene (BAIB) and NaClO₂/NaH₂PO₄, followed by Z-deprotection, gives the title compound I in 3.5% overall yield from D-glucose.     

Chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective cyclizations of 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with alpha-chloroacetic acid chlorides and alpha-chloroacetic acetals

Treatment of 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with alpha-chlorocarboxylic acid chlorides resulted in chemo- and regioselective formation of 6-chloro3,5-dioxo esters, which were regioselectively converted into functionalised 3(2H)furanones. Chemo- and regioselective condensation of 1,3-bis(trimethylsilyloxy)-1,3-butadienes with alpha-chloroacetic dimethyl acetal afforded 6-chloro-5-methoxy-3-oxo esters, which could be regio- and stereoselectively transformed into 2-alkylidene-4-methoxytetrahydrofurans.     

Ethynyl pi-extended 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles and 2-phenyl 5-(2-thienyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazoles: synthesis, X-ray crystal structures and optical properties

2-(4-tert-Butylphenyl)-5-(4-ethynylphenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole reacts with a series of heteroaryl iodides under standard Sonogashira cross-coupling conditions (Pd[PPh(3)](2)Cl(2), CuI, triethylamine, THF) to yield products 2a-g in 40-79% yields (heteroaryl = 2-pyridyl, 3-pyridyl, 4-pyridyl, 2-pyrazyl, 5-bromo-2-pyrimidyl, 2-thienyl and 3-thienyl, respectively). Compound 2f was lithiated followed by electrophilic iodination (BuLi, perfluorohexyl iodide) to give 3, which by a two-step sequence gave the terminal ethynylthienyl derivative 5. Conversion of 5 into the terminal ethynylaldehyde derivative 7, via acetal derivative 6, proceeded in high yield. Starting from 2-iodo-5-methoxycarbonylthiophene, a five-step sequence afforded 2-(4-tert-butylphenyl)-5-(4-ethynylthienyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole 13 (13% overall yield). Reactions of 13 gave terminal pyridyl, pyrazyl, pyrimidyl and thienyl derivatives, analogous to those obtained from 1. Two-fold reaction of 13 with 2,5-diiodothiophene gave the bis(ethynylthienyl)thiophene derivative 15 (30% yield). Solution UV-Vis absorption and photoluminescence spectra establish that replacement of the phenyl ring in the 2,5-diphenyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole series 2a-g by a thienyl ring [i.e. the 2-phenyl-5-(2-thienyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole series 14a-g] leads to a red shift in the lowest energy band in both the absorption spectra and emission spectra. The X-ray crystal structures of compounds 2d, 2g, 5 and 14d.CHCl(3) reveal that the molecular structures are approximately planar although there are substantial differences in the conformations.     

Synthesis and Chemical Reactivity of 5-Methoxy-2-vinyl-4-azaindoles

2-Vinyl-4-azaindoles are less reactive with dienophiles than 2-vinylindoles. 5-Methoxy-2-vinyl-4-azaindole 2a and its 1-methyl derivative 2a reacts with N-phenylmaleimide to yield cycloadducts only under vigorous conditions. 2b produces a cycloadduct with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, while 2a yields a Michael-type adduct. Reactions with more reactive dienophiles gave only polymeric products.     

Synthesis of Some Heterocyclic Compounds from Enamines of 3-Acetylfuran-2(5 H)-ones

The interaction of different 3-acetylfuran-2(5H)-ones (1, 4) with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal (DMF/DMA) has been investigated, and the condensed furopyridine system 3 was obtained. By means of interaction of compounds 4 and DMF/DMA via the 3-acetylfuran-2(5H)-one enamines, the heterocyclic substituted furanones are obtained. The condensation of 3-acetyl-4,5,5-trimethylfuran-2(5H)-one (1a) with veratraldehyde was realized. Through the interaction of 1a with malononitrile and further intramolecular condensation of the product, 6-amino-dihydroisobenzofuran-5-carbonitrile was also synthesized.     

Kinetics and mechanism of formation of isomeric 1-methyl- and 2-methyl-5-vinyltetrazoles

The alkylation of 5-(β-dimethylaminoethyl)tetrazole (1) with dimethyl sulfate afforded 5-(β-dimethylaminoethyl)-1-methyltetrazole (2) and 5-(β-dimethylaminoethyl)-2-methyltetrazole (3). The exhaustive alkylation of compounds 2 and 3 at the terminal dimethylamino group gave 1-methyl-(4) and 2-methyl-5-(β-trimethylammonioethyl)tetrazole (5) methyl sulfates. The proton elimination from the α-methylene (with respect to the tetrazole cycle) groups of the quaternary ammonium cations of salts 4 and 5 by the action of a base leads to the corresponding zwitterions 4 ^± and 5 ^±, which in the rate-determining step undergo the cleavage of the nitrogen—carbon bond with the formation of 1-methyl-5-vinyl- (6) and 2-methyl-5-vinyltetrazole (7). The true constant of the transformation of zwitterion 4 ^± into tetrazole 6 is 21 times higher than that for the transformation of zwitterion 5 ^± into tetrazole 7.

The nitration of the indandione analogue1 with conc. HNO₃ afforded a mononitro derivative (2b) in very good yield, the nitro group substituting the H atom in the methine group of the 7membered diketone ring. Upon reduction this nitro compound gave a dimeric amino derivative (7). When the halogenated derivatives of1 were treated with NH₃ in order to replace the halogen by an amino group, a ketimino derivative (5) was isolated.

ABSTRACT

N-Benzyloxycarbonyl-protected 5-amino-5-deoxyglucofuranose derivative 1 could be readily transformed into 6-O, N-carbonylidene nojirimycin 3 which afforded the corresponding piperidinosyl trichloroacetimidate 6. This compound turned out to be a versatile piperidinosyl donor. Reaction with various mercaptans as acceptors in the presence of TMSOTf as catalyst gave 5-aza-1-thioglucopyranosides 7a-c, 9, and 13 which were successfully deprotected.     

Simple Synthesis of 7‐Formyl‐indole

A simple route to 7‐formyl‐indole (5) is described in which appropriately functionalized o‐nitrotoluenes (1) are converted to 7‐hydroxymethyl‐indole (4) using the Batcho–Leimgruber process. Condensation of 3‐methyl‐2‐nitrobenzyl alcohol (1a) with N,N‐dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal yields the enamine 2a, which upon catalytic hydrogenation affords 4 in 22% yield. When the hydroxyl function in 1 is protected with pivaloyl or tetrahydropyranyl group, the yields of 4 are increased to 39% and 48%, respectively. Finally, 4 is oxidized with pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) to afford 5 in 86% yield.
